The emergence of truly ubiquitous computing, enabled by the availability of mobile, heterogenous devices that supply context information, is currently hampered by the lack of programming support for the design and development of context-aware applications. We have developed a framework which significantly eases the development of mobile, context-aware applications. The framework allows developers to fuse data from disparate sensors, represent application context, and reason efficiently about context, without the need to write complex code. An event based communication paradigm designed specifically for ad-hoc wireless environments is incorporated, which supports loose coupling between sensors, actuators and application components.
